SkyRover: A Modular Simulator for Cross-Domain Pathfinding

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) and Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) increasingly collaborate in logistics, surveillance, inspection tasks and etc. However, existing simulators often focus on a single domain, limiting cross-domain study. This paper presents the SkyRover, a modular simulator for UAV-AGV multi-agent pathfinding (MAPF). SkyRover supports realistic agent dynamics, configurable 3D environments, and convenient APIs for external solvers and learning methods. By unifying ground and aerial operations, it facilitates cross-domain algorithm design, testing, and benchmarking. Experiments highlight SkyRover’s capacity for efficient pathfinding and high-fidelity simulations in UAV-AGV coordination. We believe the SkyRover fills a key gap in MAPF research.
